Default Re: This business of adjusting to the ante structure

Some more thoughts on ante. Different stud games have different ante, and often I"ll hear phrases like high ante, or low ante, or med ante. To be honest I haven't seen any official chart that labels what structure as high or low, and it may be quite large to take into effect EVERY structure.

Ante itself is related to the Bring-in. However different structures sometimes alter the size of the Bring-in which also has its effects.

I wonder, is there such a variable as an Ante Factor? Some sort of mathematical function that takes into effect the size of the ante PLUS bring-in to give a constant value? Thus instead of saying... I'm playing a mid-to-high ante game.. and leaving someone to wonder, you could say I'm playing a 4.8 ante game.

If such a thing already has been worked out and exists in print then I've missed it as I just have not come across this in literature common.
